So here I am...finally pregnant at 29 yrs old. It's been my dream to be a mommy since I was a little girl.

I'm 6 weeks today and I feel happy but more nervous of something bad happening to the growing baby inside of me.

I am so in love with Carlos (my fiance and daddy to my baby) and he has been nothing but supportive of me since we found out a couple of weeks ago. This wasn't a planned baby per se. We knew we wanted to try one day but we didn't think it would happen this soon.

Things a bit stressful for us being that we live with his grandparents while we find a place to live. We are planning to move to Orlando which is 3 hrs from here so things are sorta nerve-wracking and scary until we find a home and Carlos a job.

Reading about so many women having miscarriages in their first trimester is really making me sad and scared. I'm trying so hard to have a positive outlook and think good thoughts. I believe sometimes our vibes about something can affect it so I'm trying to maintain a positive and healthy vibe for our baby.

I haven't made it to the doc yet since I'm currently "uninsured" until my divorce goes through. Then I can be added to Carlos' health insurance. We're hoping this all happens before July.

We've already picked out names for our little "alien". If she's a girl her name will be Zoe Nicole. Carlos loves the name Zoe from a movie he seen. Plus how many other names have three letters but more than one syllable? That just rocks!

If he's a boy then we are leaning towards Julian Dante. Though, I may spell it Julien to keep his name true to my maiden name's spelling. Boy names are so hard for me to think of and like for some reason. But this one is really nice. The ONLY hitch is that my brother's stepson is named Julian so I don't want there to be any weirdness with that.

I haven't told many people about this pregnancy yet because I still need to tell my parents and I'm not too sure what they're response will be. I prefer to wait until Carlos and I are settled in Orlando with a home and a job so as to not cause even MORE worry for my parents who are already on edge about me living so far from them.

The friends I've told have all been my closest, bestest friends, and most of my online friends who don't know my parents. I've also confided to my little brother who has promised to stay mum until I'm ready to tell my parents. Though his advice to me has given me some strength.
He said, "Well you're an adult now so who cares what mom and dad think!"

Good point, little bro!

But, I'm still going to wait until Orlando to bust out with the news.......
